I have tested paraview 5.9.0, but it fails.
1.I create a animation
2.load openvr plugin && click "send to VR "
3.In VR , I click " start " animation button
4.the animation does not work
It does support it, but please try with ParaView 5.10
FYI @martink
I have downloaded ParaView-5.10.0-Windows-Python3.9-msvc2017-AMD64.exe ， but this version also does not work. Animation have limitations ？ or Would you share some guidelines? thanks anyway.
No
Would you share some guidelines?
- Do not start the animation before sending it to VR.
- Use animation cache
where‘s’ animation cache？
Well you found it
use example “can.ex2” , Animation can work.
but the following step fails:
I open source->cone && use animation view to create animation.
then click “send to VR”
In VR , I click start && it does not work.
@mahb : Just save your animation to a timeseries before opening it again.
@martink @utkarsh.ayachit : Looks like VR + AnimationManager created animation may not work.
The way PV caches animation isn’t really suitable for VR. Sometimes it works, but without changes to PV it just isn’t a good path.
Use “save data”, not “save animation”
pvd comes to mind
Would you describe this method by steps?
I’ve tried pvd and other types, it seem to fail to be a animation.
Thanks a lot
You are animating the camera it looks like, then this require to use the SaveAnimatedScene feature, available only in ParaView 5.10.0
Now I am using paraview 5.10.0. How can I use this feature?
File → SaveAnimatedScene
Only .vtkjs format is supported
Thank you, I find File → Export Animated scene. but save faild.the following is the output message.

Looks like a permission error at first glance, do you save your animation in a location you have access to (ie something like your personal Documents folder) ? In any case there is some known issue with the Export animated scene feature on windows, you could try on Linux if you have one.
Also what dou you mean by
? Do you want to open your animation as a video ? Or as data in ParaView ? On the web ? vtkjs may not be the data format you’re looking for.
